Discover VIRGO: The safest cycling helmets designed for e-bikes. The future of helmets has arrived. Experience the cutting-edge of helmet design made for optimal balance of safety & performance.

After 8 successfully funded Kickstarter campaigns, we went with our 9th one with a bigger & better product. Thankful to all who believed in us, the previous you made the previous nice & reliable products come to life. We’re looking to continue providing you with more innovative & successful products that become a reality.

VIRGO was designed to provide full protection in a lightweight piece for people who value both safety and performance. This helmet is suitable for e-bike riding, as well as for regular bike rides. Its design skillfully blends lightweight construction, optimal ventilation, and full facial protection in the event of a head-on collision.

Made of a polycarbonate shell with a protective layer of EPS, VIRGO gives you a combination of protection & lightness that keeps up with your activities without compromising on safety, look or performance.

The helmet is specifically designed to fit the safety needs of electric bikes. It’s designed around the new European regulation NTA-8776, which is made for high speeds up to 45 km/h (28 mp/h). It also complies with regular bike regulations EN 1078/CPSC.

 

 

 

With the arrival of electric bikes in our cities, the speed is higher than ever. That’s why you need a helmet designed for better protection. This could mean a slightly heavier, helmet that does its job of providing better protection while still being comfortable while riding. VIRGO offers extra safety as it It follows the hybridization of bicycles by offering much better safety.

Loving the new electric modes of transportation? More speed and less effort means a different level of risk. VIRGO helmet has you covered when you reach high speeds in the wild urban jungle.

 

Be visible when it gets dark or rainy. A rear LED light placed at the back of the head, that cannot be obstructed by a bag or clothing makes you more visible to drivers, keeping you safer than ever before.

VIRGO is the ideal solution for modern e-bikes, scooters, and powered vehicles, providing enhanced protection and increased visibility beyond what traditional bike helmets offer. What makes this helmet stand out is the safety technology within the shell. Multi-impact protection zones feature in the areas most likely to be hit in a fall. 

Should you have an accident and hit your head, the MIPS system in your helmet is designed to help reduce the rotational motion of certain impacts that may otherwise be transferred to your head.

Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions and more severe brain injury in oblique hits to the head. The MIPS system consists of a low friction layer that is mounted inside the helmet. In a crash, the low friction layer is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head. This is intended to help reduce the risk of brain injury.

 

Easily attach & remove the LED Tail Light for fast electric bikes with Integrated brake light. Its equipped with a built-in accelerometer that detects braking.

VIRGO comes in four fantastic colors that reflect the latest trends with an edgy palette tailored to urban styles. Choose the perfect match that best fits your style for your daily commute.

 

 

VIRGO was created to seamlessly fit into your daily life. With a unisex design that blends soft curves and sharp edges, this helmet provides modern and iconic protection. Its beautiful matte finish pairs well with any outfit and can integrate effortlessly with your bike’s style.

Enjoy a perfect fit with our helmet designed in 3 sizes that cover the entire head scope. Get the right size for your head circumference, with sizes XS, S/M, and L/XL.

Experience the ultimate combination of lightness, ventilation, and full-face protection with our helmet. With eight powerful aerations integrated into the shell, this helmet creates channels of air that refresh your head during rides. Weighing in at just 650 grams, it’s significantly lighter than a regular integral helmet used for MTB rides.

1. Riding position 

The chin strap is placed in a way that allows you to drink & fully surrounds the face for shock protection.

2. Shock from below 

The helmet lifts up from the back and the face shield protects the face. The forehead remains protected by the shell. 

3. Shock from above

The helmet pivots forward and lower the chin bar. The face stays protected and the fitting system reduces the helmet move. 

Bicycle helmets are designed to meet two important needs of cyclists. Firstly, they provide necessary protection against potential injuries, and secondly, they are designed to be lightweight to avoid interfering with the physical efforts of the rider. With the addition of facial protection that doesn’t add unnecessary weight, the VIRGO helmet provides improved safety for the lower part of the face, without compromising on the cyclist’s performance.

 

 

 

The VIRGO adopts a hybrid helmet format that combines the best of full-face and open-face helmets to offer the perfect balance of weight and safety. With a reduced weight of just 650 grams, the helmet provides full-face protection while ensuring exceptional comfort throughout your ride.

When we released a draft version of our project, we received feedback from cyclists and doctors across multiple countries. The level of interest varied depending on the individual experiences and practices of each cyclist, as well as the input from doctors who had treated injuries resulting from cycling accidents. This diverse feedback allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the needs and concerns of cyclists and doctors in different regions, helping us to refine our project to better meet their needs.

 

 

After the campaign ends we will process everything quickly and professionally. You will receive a survey. We are able to offer a proven and well-priced solution for worldwide shipment. Your rewards will be sent as parcel – insured & trackable. Please keep in mind that you may be responsible for customs charges if required by your country for importing goods.

We are a team of designers, engineers and entrepreneurs who want to create amazing products that improve the experience of cyclists. We created THEBEAM in 2018 and developed several products like CORKY, LUCIA and WHEEL FLASH to improve cyclists’ safety on the road.

VIRGOMOVE designs and develops products for the protection of the new mobility. Our goal is to make safety accessible and practical for all cyclists and road users, regardless of their mode of transportation.
